Okay so this is my second post within two days I believe..my other one got closed so I couldn't respond. I'm pretty upset, as you can tell. I was playing sims fine, everything was working great then I decided to quit because I had to eat dinner. I tried to start up sims again, and BOOM. It's back to crashing. Only this time, instead of crashing in game, it crashes the second the loading screen for the sims 3 pets comes up. I did the DEP thing & restarted my computer, still nothing. I have not updated to 1.42 because I didn't know if I could, and I have not done the ultimate fix. I normally can fix it on my own, but this time I'm out of ideas..
